Netbook plummets while tablets and smartphones soar, says Canalys

Smartphones outsold PCs and tablets combined, says research company – but netbooks have had their day as sales fall by 25% year-on-year Stick a fork in it: the netbook is done, with sales falling by 25% in the past year while smartphones and tablets are invading the computing space, according to new figures from the research company Canalys.
